Generative AI offers remarkable opportunities to supercharge the ways in which we work across the legal industry. However, its integration into legal practice also presents significant ethical and professional challenges. This course will delve into both the challenges and opportunities, including a discussion of the American Bar Association’s first formal opinion on generative AI, Formal Opinion 512, and other ways in which the landscape has evolved over the past year, to provide an overview of the ethical considerations and best practices for using generative and other forms of AI in legal and legal adjacent work.

For the first time, we’re opening up this session, which forms a key part of our Crowell Generative AI training, to clients. This session is designed for any legal professional eager to harness AI tools while upholding the highest standards of professional responsibility. 

We’ll cover:

  • A Generative AI Refresher and Update on Its Use in Legal
  • True Tales of Irresponsible Generative AI Use
  • Ethical and Legal Obligations Implicated by Generative AI
  • Key Points of ABA Formal Opinion 512 (July 29, 2024)
  • Legal Department Perspectives on How Firms Should (Not) Use AI
  • Best Practices to Leverage Generative AI While Mitigating Risks and Complying with Ethical Obligation
